Lifted raised £1.6 million in a seed round led by Fuel Ventures

Lifted, a London, UK-based home healthcare startup, has raised £1.6 million ($2.02m).

The money was raised from investors led by Fuel Ventures. Vitry Enfants and Marc Cohen of 1818 Venture Capital also participated. 

Proceeds will be used to develop their platform to bring more joy to families, quickly scale the business and build on the data-driven capabilities of their platform.

Lifted, founded in 2018 by Rachael Crook and Sam Cohen, provides a combination of personalised and in-person care, which ranges from medical to social support, as well as an app where family members can manage everything related. Users can review and select a carer, book visits and outline tasks to be completed, read carer notes about the visit, and pay for the service — which has hourly, overnight, and live-in rates.
